how many points would girgens have if okposo didn't slow him down



I mean now we are blaming risto for jack's numbers

How mad would you be if you went to the doctors and they prescribed you several different medications and physio treatments for lingering systems that you have, while being fully cognizant of a cancerous tumor in your leg being the root cause of the symptoms you have been feeling ?

In this case they can remove the tumor with a non-life threatening surgery, however, this particular doctor has galaxy brained himself into blaming healthy functioning bodily organisms and identifying issues where none exist.

Well Risto is the tumor and coaching/management/Risto apologists are the doctors that are not removing the tumor, or at the very least trying to drain the franking thing.

Risto has played 25 minutes a night and the only thing he’s good for is clearing the front of the net because we are in our zone because he concedes possession. He gives up the blue line on opposing teams transition plays giving them zone entries.

Every single Sabres player has better analytics way from Risto then they do with him. He brings everyone down.

So yes, considering the amount of time he has spent on the ice with Eichel, and how I have to listen about how he is a crappy leader, not a top 10 Center, not worth $10M, or how we should trade him because we have made the playoffs with him, yes the comparison is valid.

You know who else hasn’t made the playoffs ? Risto the entire time he’s been here.

they love him


I mean everyone wants him gone the last 2 seasons and the sabres only followed up once, with the bolts and it was a quick call

And you’re surprised with a 10 year playoff drought ?

Driedger should be a target now, especially with Knight already getting the call.

you guys ever notice how star players have always had their most success against the sabres in the last 8 years

and we finally stifled ovie for the first time in ages and a certain change was made that perhaps lead to it

Can you provide a numerical breakdown of who was on the ice for buffalo against those stars when they scored, the amount of ice-time against and the ratio of goals-against/60 min?

Ok Boss, never said it would change what the Bruins thought. All that matters is what is said in the Sabres locker room. Maybe if you got your face out of Girgelson's jock strap you would have noticed that, when you and Girgs get done with your Sausage fest maybe you might be able to see that.

This is a sound approach 👊

Ristolainen is a bad defensemen

He doesn’t even get the tough matchups anymore and he posts god awful numbers

He doesn’t even give you good offense

He’s 74th among D men in scoring despite PP1 time and tons of minutes

He’s bad. It’s over. It’s decided

That's not a objectively scientific approach as you're going into it with a specific premise in mind.

Do you know who does the tracking for Natural Stat trick? Or their qualifications? Methodology? How many are watching each game?

Thought Magen's Bay was better. But Coki is not bad.
